Review of Salesman (1969) by Pavandeep S — 02 May 2009

I was intrigued more by the subject matter than anything else when I watched this and I found myself thinking how utterly strange it all was. The salesmen lies and uses every cunning available because he needs the sale and the families that are approached are not exactly those with deep pockets for bibles such as these.

In my opinion, this film does display how destructive capitalism can be, by showing us how human emotions are easily molded to our every whims and to be played out for adavantage to either the salesman or the businessman or the politician.

A fantastic study of suburban America as well.
